In 2020, Lorena released a single titled "Tvoja i gotovo" written and produced by Vjekoslava and Tonči Huljić which gained popularity with the public. As of 2022, it has more than 3 million views on YouTube and was given the 'Cesarica' award in the category for September hit.[8] In 2022, she sang a short snippet of the song with Jelena Rozga which was very well-received by fans on Instagram.[9]


Artistry


Due to her high vocal register and versatile capabilities, critics compared Lorena to Doris Dragović.[10] Despite seeing that as a compliment, she shared with the public that she would not like to be called a "successor" to some singers.[11] Her mentor and main collaborator Tonči Huljić also complimented her for the use of emotions in her interpretations.
